Decoration Methods and Artwork Prep Tips
Your logo should be positioned just right, and pop with detail! At Chotski, we understand the importance of getting all of the details right; we work closely with our decorating partners to achieve this.  We put together this page as a guide for our clients and for anyone who needs a little help navigating their way through the sometimes confusing, decorating terms of this crazy promotional industry!  Keep in mind, that although we do have all of the decorating methods listed here, application of any decoration choice varies between supplier capability and of course, the materials being decorated. As always, if you have any questions, just give us a call and we'll help you! To achieve the very best results, always provide vetor artwork

Color Stamp: Add the high-end look of foil to your company logo with color stamping. Simple one-color designs are enhanced when a die is used to apply colored foil to a material's surface.  Works best with solid artwork - no screens or gradients

Color Fill: Color fill combines color stamping and debossing. It begins with creating a die of your artwork. Then we color stamp your logo onto the material, and follow this step with a blind deboss, with the same die. This method is available only on vinyl patches. Works best with solid artwork, no screens or gradients.

Deboss: Also referred to as blind deboss, this classic method allows you to leave an impression, or rather, a depression, of your logo onto a material's surface. We create a die and then heat-press it into the material. What's left behind is a clean, crisp logo you can see and feel. It's ideal on leather, Durahyde, UltraHyde, Scuba, recycled rubber and paperboard products. No gradients allowed in artwork for this type of usage.

Domes: To add dimension and shine to your logo, place it under a clear, high-gloss polyurethane dome (black, gray and white bezels available). Domes offer a high-impact look at a low-impact price.

Laser Engraving: Laser engraving gives your logo a clean, polished appearance by precisely etching the logo into the material’s surface. It’s perfect on metal items including pens, drinkware, flashlights and accessories. Single (solid) artwork only.

Pad Printing: Available for single or multi-color logos. Highlight your logo in vivid color on bags, pens, drinkware, technology items and accessories with this decorating method. It's an economical way to gain high visibility.

Steel Threads Metal Logo and Pewter Plates: Perfect for logos with clean lines and minimal color, Steel Threads Metal Logos are built to last...and built to leave a lasting impression.
